چکیده

For developing countries like Pakistan, the paucity of reliable solar radiation data necessitates the development of empirical models. To develop such a model one could use various parameters. In this study, linear regression models are developed to estimate the monthly average daily global radiation using cloudiness data for Karachi, Pakistan for the period of 20 years (1990-2010). The results showed that the models could estimate global radiation within acceptable error.
